Definitions
- the present invention relates to an absorbent sheet for pets that absorbs pet excreta such as urine.
- the absorbent sheet for pets that absorbs pet excreta such as urine is known (see Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2 below).
- the absorbent sheet for pets includes a liquid-impermeable backsheet, a liquid-permeable topsheet, and an absorber positioned between the backsheet and the sheet.
- Patent Literature 1 discloses an absorbent sheet for pets provided with a topsheet to which a chemical solution containing at least one of a fragrance component, a deodorizing component, and a sterilizing component is attached.
- Patent Literature 2 discloses an absorbent sheet for pets having a pH determination portion formed of a functional ink that functions by moisture. This pH determination portion is provided on the topsheet or the sheet body adjacent to the back side of the topsheet.
- Patent Literature 1 JP 2006-238745 A
- Patent Literature 2 JP 2013-179858 A
- a functional material such as a fragrance component, a deodorizing component, a sterilizing component, or a functional ink is provided on the topsheet or a sheet adjacent to the topsheet.
- the functional material may flow out from a scratch or a tear of the topsheet. Therefore, before continuing to use the absorbent sheet for pets for a long period of time during which the pet performs the excretion action a plurality of times, the function of the functional material may deteriorate.
- An absorbent sheet for pets includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorber provided between the topsheet and the backsheet, a functional material, and a recess that is recessed in a direction from the topsheet toward the backsheet.
- the functional material is provided at a position of the recess.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of an absorbent sheet for pets according to a first embodiment.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the absorbent sheet for pets taken along line A-A shown in FIG. 1 .
- an absorbent sheet for pets includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorber provided between the topsheet and the backsheet, a functional material, and a recess that is recessed in a direction from the topsheet toward the backsheet.
- the functional material is provided at a position of the recess.
- the functional material is provided at the position of the recess.
- the functional material is provided at a position recessed relative to the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets. Therefore, even when the pet scratches the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets, the outflow of the functional material can be suppressed.
- the functional material is provided closer to the absorber than to the topsheet at the position of the recess.
- the functional material is provided closer to the absorber than to the topsheet, even when the pet scratches the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets, the outflow of the functional material can be further suppressed.
- the recess is formed by at least an embossed portion obtained by compressing the absorber.
- the embossed portion is generally formed by compressing at least the absorber with the projection of the emboss roller.
- a functional material to the projection of the emboss roller, the functional material can be accurately transferred to the position of the embossed portion. That is, the functional material can be easily transferred accurately to the embossed portion by forming the recess with the embossed portion.
- the functional material includes a water resistant agent.
- a water resistant agent can control the diffusion of pet excreta.
- the water resistant agent is provided at the position of the recess and is located inside in the thickness direction. Therefore, it is possible to prevent excreta absorbed by the absorber from spreading in a circular shape inside the absorber.
- the absorbent sheet for pets can be continuously used for a long period of time during which the excretion action is performed a plurality of times.
- the water resistant agent includes a water resistant resin.
- a coating film of the water resistant agent can be easily formed at the position of the recess by solidifying the resin by volatilization/drying after discharging the solvent containing the resin to the recess.
- the functional material has hydrophobicity.
- the absorbent sheet for pets absorbs pet excreta, for example, urine
- the region that has absorbed the excreta has a dull color.
- the functional material having hydrophobicity at the position of the recess by providing a functional material having hydrophobicity at the position of the recess, the void between the fibers on the surface of the recess is covered with the functional material, and it is difficult to absorb the excreta at the position of the recess. Therefore, even when the absorbent sheet for pets absorbs excreta, there is a difference in appearance between the position of the recess and the region around the recess. As a result, the user can distinguish easily the region which is wet with excreta, and the region which is not wet. The user can easily recognize the timing of replacing the absorbent sheet for pets by recognizing the wet region and the non-wet region.
- the functional material includes a colorant.
- a color difference occurs between the position of the recess and the region around the recess when viewed from the topsheet. This color difference makes it easier for the user to recognize the depth of the recess, and hence the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets.
- the user feels that the absorbent sheet for pets is thick it is possible to give the user a sense of security that the absorbent sheet for pets can withstand the excretion action a plurality of times.
- a difference between a saturation at a position of the recess and a saturation at a region around the recess when viewed from the topsheet is 10% or more. This makes it easier to recognize the color difference between the position of the recess and the region around the recess, and thus makes it easier to feel the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets.
- the saturation at the position of the recess is higher than the saturation at the region around the recess.
- the saturation at the region around the recess is less than 5%.
- the region around a recess becomes substantially achromatic. Accordingly, a recess having more vivid saturation is disposed in the background of the achromatic color, and the user feels the depth of the recess deeper due to the illusion effect. Therefore, the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets can be easily felt by the user.
- part of the backsheet extends outward of the topsheet.
- a difference between the saturation at the position of the recess and a saturation of the backsheet is less than 5%.
- part of the backsheet extends outward of the topsheet.
- a difference between a hue at the position of the recess and a hue of the backsheet is less than 30 degrees.
- the user can feel that the bottom of the recess is close to the position of the backsheet in the thickness direction. This makes the user feel that the thickness of the recess is thick, so that the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets can be more easily felt by the user.
- pet broadly encompasses vertebrates and invertebrates, and typically includes pets such as cats, dogs, rabbits, and hamsters.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of the absorbent sheet for pets according to the first embodiment.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the absorbent sheet for pets taken along line A-A shown in FIG. 1 .
- An absorbent sheet for pets 10 is a generally flat sheet.
- One face of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 is a face that receives pet excreta, and is also referred to as an “excretion face” below.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of the absorbent sheet for pets as seen from the excretion face.
- the absorbent sheet for pets 10 includes a topsheet 12 disposed on the top side, a backsheet 14 disposed on the back side, and an absorber 20 .
- the absorber 20 is provided between the topsheet 12 and the backsheet 14 .

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to an absorbent sheet for pets that absorbs pet excreta such as urine.
- An absorbent sheet for pets that absorbs pet excreta such as urine is known (see Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2 below). The absorbent sheet for pets includes a liquid-impermeable backsheet, a liquid-permeable topsheet, and an absorber positioned between the backsheet and the sheet.
- Patent Literature 1 discloses an absorbent sheet for pets provided with a topsheet to which a chemical solution containing at least one of a fragrance component, a deodorizing component, and a sterilizing component is attached.
- Patent Literature 2 discloses an absorbent sheet for pets having a pH determination portion formed of a functional ink that functions by moisture. This pH determination portion is provided on the topsheet or the sheet body adjacent to the back side of the topsheet.
- Patent Literature 1: JP 2006-238745 A
- Patent Literature 2: JP 2013-179858 A
- In Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2, a functional material such as a fragrance component, a deodorizing component, a sterilizing component, or a functional ink is provided on the topsheet or a sheet adjacent to the topsheet.
- However, when the pet scratches the surface of the absorbent sheet for pets, the functional material may flow out from a scratch or a tear of the topsheet. Therefore, before continuing to use the absorbent sheet for pets for a long period of time during which the pet performs the excretion action a plurality of times, the function of the functional material may deteriorate.
- Therefore, an absorbent sheet for pets that can suppress the outflow of the functional material is desired.
- An absorbent sheet for pets according to an embodiment includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorber provided between the topsheet and the backsheet, a functional material, and a recess that is recessed in a direction from the topsheet toward the backsheet. The functional material is provided at a position of the recess.
-
FIG. 1 is a plan view of an absorbent sheet for pets according to a first embodiment. -
FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the absorbent sheet for pets taken along line A-A shown inFIG. 1 . - (1) Outline of Embodiment
- At least the following matters will become apparent from the description of the present specification and the accompanying drawings.
- According to a preferred embodiment, an absorbent sheet for pets includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorber provided between the topsheet and the backsheet, a functional material, and a recess that is recessed in a direction from the topsheet toward the backsheet. The functional material is provided at a position of the recess.
- According to this aspect, the functional material is provided at the position of the recess. In other words, the functional material is provided at a position recessed relative to the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets. Therefore, even when the pet scratches the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets, the outflow of the functional material can be suppressed.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the functional material is provided closer to the absorber than to the topsheet at the position of the recess.
- According to this aspect, since the functional material is provided closer to the absorber than to the topsheet, even when the pet scratches the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets, the outflow of the functional material can be further suppressed.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the recess is formed by at least an embossed portion obtained by compressing the absorber.
- The embossed portion is generally formed by compressing at least the absorber with the projection of the emboss roller. By applying a functional material to the projection of the emboss roller, the functional material can be accurately transferred to the position of the embossed portion. That is, the functional material can be easily transferred accurately to the embossed portion by forming the recess with the embossed portion.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the functional material includes a water resistant agent. A water resistant agent can control the diffusion of pet excreta. In this aspect, the water resistant agent is provided at the position of the recess and is located inside in the thickness direction. Therefore, it is possible to prevent excreta absorbed by the absorber from spreading in a circular shape inside the absorber.
- Also, when it is possible to suppress the spread of excreta which was discharged once, it is possible to secure a region that has not absorb excreta, so that the pet can perform the excretion action again in the region that has not absorbed excreta. For example, a pet such as dogs has the habit of not performing the excretion action again where urinary traces are visible. Therefore, when the diffusion of excreta can be appropriately controlled by the water resistant agent and the pattern of the recesses, the absorbent sheet for pets can be continuously used for a long period of time during which the excretion action is performed a plurality of times.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the water resistant agent includes a water resistant resin. According to this aspect, a coating film of the water resistant agent can be easily formed at the position of the recess by solidifying the resin by volatilization/drying after discharging the solvent containing the resin to the recess.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the functional material has hydrophobicity. In general, when the absorbent sheet for pets absorbs pet excreta, for example, urine, the region that has absorbed the excreta has a dull color. In this aspect, by providing a functional material having hydrophobicity at the position of the recess, the void between the fibers on the surface of the recess is covered with the functional material, and it is difficult to absorb the excreta at the position of the recess. Therefore, even when the absorbent sheet for pets absorbs excreta, there is a difference in appearance between the position of the recess and the region around the recess. As a result, the user can distinguish easily the region which is wet with excreta, and the region which is not wet. The user can easily recognize the timing of replacing the absorbent sheet for pets by recognizing the wet region and the non-wet region.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the functional material includes a colorant. According to this aspect, since the colorant is provided at the position of the recess, a color difference occurs between the position of the recess and the region around the recess when viewed from the topsheet. This color difference makes it easier for the user to recognize the depth of the recess, and hence the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets. When the user feels that the absorbent sheet for pets is thick, it is possible to give the user a sense of security that the absorbent sheet for pets can withstand the excretion action a plurality of times.
- According to a preferred embodiment, a difference between a saturation at a position of the recess and a saturation at a region around the recess when viewed from the topsheet is 10% or more. This makes it easier to recognize the color difference between the position of the recess and the region around the recess, and thus makes it easier to feel the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the saturation at the position of the recess is higher than the saturation at the region around the recess. By making the color at the position of the recess more vivid than the region around the recess, it is easier to recognize the color difference between the position of the recess and the region around the recess, and therefore, it is easier to feel the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the saturation at the region around the recess is less than 5%. As a result, the region around a recess becomes substantially achromatic. Accordingly, a recess having more vivid saturation is disposed in the background of the achromatic color, and the user feels the depth of the recess deeper due to the illusion effect. Therefore, the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets can be easily felt by the user.
- According to a preferred embodiment, part of the backsheet extends outward of the topsheet. A difference between the saturation at the position of the recess and a saturation of the backsheet is less than 5%. By making the saturation at the position of the recess close to the saturation of the backsheet, the user can feel that the bottom of the recess is close to the position of the backsheet in the thickness direction. This makes the user feel that the thickness of the recess is thick, so that the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets can be more easily felt by the user.
- According to a preferred embodiment, part of the backsheet extends outward of the topsheet. A difference between a hue at the position of the recess and a hue of the backsheet is less than 30 degrees.
- According to this aspect, by bringing the hue at the position of the recess close to the hue of the backsheet, the user can feel that the bottom of the recess is close to the position of the backsheet in the thickness direction. This makes the user feel that the thickness of the recess is thick, so that the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets can be more easily felt by the user.
- (2) Configuration of Absorbent Sheet for Pets
- Hereinafter, the absorbent sheet for pets according to the embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description of the drawings, the same or similar parts are denoted by the same or similar reference symbols. However, note that the drawings are schematic, and ratios of dimensions are different from actual ones. Therefore, specific dimensions and the like are determined in consideration of the following description. Moreover, there may be portions where dimensional relationships or proportions are different among the drawings.
- In the present specification, “pet” broadly encompasses vertebrates and invertebrates, and typically includes pets such as cats, dogs, rabbits, and hamsters.
-
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the absorbent sheet for pets according to the first embodiment.FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the absorbent sheet for pets taken along line A-A shown inFIG. 1 . An absorbent sheet for pets 10 is a generally flat sheet. One face of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 is a face that receives pet excreta, and is also referred to as an “excretion face” below.FIG. 1 is a plan view of the absorbent sheet for pets as seen from the excretion face. - The absorbent sheet for pets 10 includes a
topsheet 12 disposed on the top side, abacksheet 14 disposed on the back side, and anabsorber 20. Theabsorber 20 is provided between thetopsheet 12 and thebacksheet 14. - The
topsheet 12 may be a liquid-permeable sheet that liquid such as pet excreta permeates. The liquid-permeable sheet may be composed of, for example, a liquid-permeable nonwoven fabric or an opening film. - The
backsheet 14 may be a liquid-impermeable sheet that liquid such as pet excreta does not permeate. Thebacksheet 14 is not particularly limited, but may be composed by, for example, a resin film sheet. - In the present embodiment, part of the
backsheet 14 extends outward of thetopsheet 12. Therefore, thebacksheet 14 can be visually recognized from the excretion face for the outer peripheral portion of the absorbent sheet for pets 10. - The
absorber 20 may include anabsorbent core 30 and a core wrap 33 that wraps theabsorbent core 30. The core wrap 33 may include acover layer 34 that covers the excretion face side of theabsorbent core 30, and awrap layer 35 that covers the side face and the back face of theabsorbent core 30. In this case, theabsorbent core 30 is wrapped by thecover layer 34 and thewrap layer 35. Thecover layer 34 and thewrap layer 35 are not particularly limited, but can be composed of, for example, a liquid-permeable tissue. - The
absorbent core 30 may include, but is not limited to, ahydrophilic fiber 31 such as pulp, and a super absorbent polymer (SAP) 32, or a combination thereof. As an example, in the present embodiment, the super absorbent polymer (SAP) 32 is provided on thehydrophilic fiber layer 31. Thehydrophilic fiber layer 31 may be wrapped with a tissue layer (not shown). - The absorbent sheet for pets 10 has a
recess 50 that is recessed in a direction from thetopsheet 12 toward thebacksheet 14. Hereinafter, thisrecess 50 is referred to as a “top recess 50” for convenience. Thetop recess 50 may be formed at least on theabsorber 20. - At least one
top recess 50 may be provided on theabsorber 20. In the present embodiment, a large number of dot-shaped top recesses 50 are provided. These dot-like top recesses 50 may be arranged so as to form an intermittent line. Alternatively, the top recesses 50 may extend linearly or curvilinearly to form a continuous line. - The
top recess 50 may be formed by at least an embossed portion obtained by compressing theabsorber 20. This embossed portion may be formed by compressing only theabsorber 20, or may be formed by compressing both theabsorber 20 and thetopsheet 12. When thetop recess 50 is formed by an embossed portion, the density of theabsorber 20 at the position of thetop recess 50 is higher than the density of theabsorber 20 around thetop recess 50. - Alternatively, the
top recess 50 may be configured by lowering at least the basis weight of theabsorber 20. In this case, the basis weight of theabsorber 20 at the position of thetop recess 50 may be lower than the basis weight of theabsorber 20 around thetop recess 50. - The absorbent sheet for pets 10 has a
functional material 40. Thefunctional material 40 may include a water resistant agent, a colorant or a drug, or a combination thereof. The water resistant agent may contain, for example, a water resistant resin. As an example of the water resistant agent, an acrylic water resistant resin can be used. When the water resistant agent contains a water resistant resin, a coating film of the water resistant agent can be easily formed at the position of thetop recess 50 by solidifying the resin by volatilization/drying after discharging the solvent containing the resin to the recess. - The colorant may be composed of any agent that can color the position of the
top recess 50. The colorant may be hydrophilic or hydrophobic. Preferably, the colorant has a hydrophobic or a water resistant agent. - The
functional material 40 is provided at the position of thetop recess 50. Preferably, thefunctional material 40 is provided closer to theabsorber 20 than thetopsheet 12 at the position of thetop recess 50. In the present embodiment, thefunctional material 40 is provided on thecover layer 34 constituting theabsorber 20 at the position of thetop recess 50 as an example. - The
functional material 40 is provided at the position of thetop recess 50, in other words, at a position recessed relative to the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets 10. Therefore, even when the pet scratches the outermost top face of the absorbent sheet for pets 10, the outflow of thefunctional material 40 can be suppressed. - When the
functional material 40 is provided on thetop recess 50, the top recesses 50 are preferably formed by at least an embossed portion obtained by compressing theabsorber 20. The embossed portion is generally formed by compressing at least theabsorber 20 with a projection formed on the emboss roller. By applying thefunctional material 40 to the projection of the emboss roller, thefunctional material 40 can be accurately transferred to the position of the embossed portion. That is, thefunctional material 40 can be easily transferred accurately to the embossed portion with thetop recess 50 formed by the embossed portion. - In one aspect, the
functional material 40 preferably includes a water resistant agent. A water resistant agent can control the diffusion of pet excreta. In this aspect, the water resistant agent is provided at the position of thetop recess 50, and is present at a position recessed relative to the top face of theabsorber 20 in the thickness direction. Therefore, it is possible to prevent excreta absorbed by theabsorber 20 from spreading in a circular shape inside theabsorber 20. - When it is possible to suppress the spread of excreta which was discharged once, it is possible to secure a region that has not absorb excreta, so that the pet can perform the excretion action again in the region that has not absorbed excreta. For example, a pet such as dogs has the habit of not performing the excretion action again where urinary traces are visible. Therefore, when the diffusion of excreta can be appropriately controlled by the water resistant agent and the pattern of the
top recesses 50, the absorbent sheet for pets 10 can be continuously used for a long period of time during which the excretion action is performed a plurality of times. - In order to exhibit such an effect more, it is preferable that the
top recesses 50 be provided so as to form a continuous or intermittent line. In this specification, the “intermittent line” is defined by an imaginary line that connects thetop recesses 50 that are close enough to be regarded as an “intermittent line” by the user's vision. In particular, the imaginary line is defined by a line connecting atop recess 50 that exists at a position away from a specifictop recess 50 by a distance not more than 1.5 times the distance between the specifictop recess 50 and atop recess 50 closest to the specifictop recess 50 and the specifictop recess 50. Further, as an example, the imaginary line may be defined by a line connecting the top recesses 50 having an interval of 1 cm or less, more preferably 5 mm or less therebetween. - The
functional material 40 may have hydrophobicity. In general, when the absorbent sheet for pets 10 absorbs pet excreta, for example, urine, the region that has absorbed the excreta has a dull color. In this aspect, by providing afunctional material 40 having hydrophobicity at the position of thetop recess 50, the void between the fibers on the surface of the top recesses 50 is covered with thefunctional material 40, and it is difficult to absorb the excreta at the position of thetop recess 50. Therefore, even when the absorbent sheet for pets 10 absorbs excreta, there is a difference in appearance between the position of thetop recess 50 and the region around thetop recess 50. As a result, the user can distinguish easily the region which is wet with excreta, and the region which is not wet. The user can easily recognize the timing of replacing the absorbent sheet for pets 10 by recognizing the wet region and the non-wet region. - According to one aspect, the
functional material 40 preferably includes a colorant. When the colorant is provided at the position of thetop recess 50, a color difference occurs between the position of thetop recesses 50 and the region around the top recesses 50 when viewed from thetopsheet 12 side. This color difference makes it easier for the user to recognize the depth of thetop recess 50, and hence the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets 10. When the user feels that the absorbent sheet for pets 10 is thick, it is possible to give the user a sense of security that the absorbent sheet for pets 10 can withstand the excretion action a plurality of times. - The colorant can give a difference between the saturation at the position of the
top recess 50 and the saturation at the region around thetop recess 50 of the absorbent sheet for pets 10. When viewed from thetopsheet 12 side, the saturation at the position of thetop recess 50 is preferably higher than the saturation at the region around thetop recess 50. By making the color at the position of thetop recess 50 vivid than that at the region around thetop recess 50, the user can more easily recognize the color difference between the position of thetop recesses 50 and the region around thetop recess 50. Therefore, the user can more easily feel the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets 10. - The saturation at the region around the
top recess 50 is preferably less than 5%. In the present specification, hue, saturation, and lightness are defined by the HSV color space (also referred to as HSB color space) (hereinafter the same applies). As a result, the region around thetop recess 50 becomes achromatic. Accordingly, the top recesses 50 having more vivid saturation is arranged in the background region of the achromatic color. As a result, the user feels the depth of thetop recess 50 deeper due to the illusion effect. Therefore, the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 can be easily felt by the user. - Furthermore, when the
top recess 50 having more vivid saturation is arranged in the region of the white background, the user feels the depth of thetop recess 50 deeper due to the illusion effect. From such a viewpoint, it is more preferable that the region around thetop recess 50 be substantially white. For example, it is preferable that the saturation at the region around thetop recess 50 be less than 5% and the lightness is 90% or more. - The difference between the saturation at the position of the
top recess 50 and the saturation at the region around thetop recess 50 when viewed from the topsheet is preferably relatively large, specifically 10% or more. As a result, the user can more easily recognize the color difference between the position of thetop recess 50 and the region around thetop recess 50, and thereby, can more easily feel the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets 10. - When part of the
backsheet 14 extends outward of thetopsheet 12, the difference between the saturation at the position of thetop recess 50 and the saturation of thebacksheet 14 is preferably relatively small, specifically less than 5% when viewed from the excretion face. By bringing the saturation at the position of thetop recess 50 close to the saturation of thebacksheet 14, the user can feel that the bottom of thetop recess 50 is close to the position of thebacksheet 14 in the thickness direction. This makes the user feel that the thickness of thetop recess 50 is thick, so that the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 can be more easily felt by the user. - When viewed from the excretion face side, the difference between the hue at the position of the
top recess 50 and the hue of thebacksheet 14 is preferably relatively small, specifically less than 30 degrees. By bringing the hue at the position of thetop recess 50 close to the hue of thebacksheet 14, the user can feel that the bottom of thetop recess 50 is close to the position of thebacksheet 14 in the thickness direction. This makes the user feel that the thickness of thetop recess 50 is thick, so that the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 can be more easily felt by the user. - The hue, saturation, and lightness in the HSV color space can be validated by visual comparison with a color sample prepared in advance.
- Next, the results of sensory evaluation of the absorbent sheet for pets will be described with reference to Comparative Examples 1 and 2 and Examples 1 to 4. Comparative Example 1 is an absorbent sheet for pets that does not include the colorant as the
functional material 40 and the top recesses 50. Other configurations of the absorbent sheet for pets of Comparative Example 1 are the same as those of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . - Comparative Example 2 is an absorbent sheet for pets that has the
top recesses 50 but does not contain a colorant as thefunctional material 40. Other configurations of the absorbent sheet for pets of Comparative Example 2 are the same as those of the absorbent sheet for pets 10 shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . - Examples 1 to 4 are the absorbent sheet for pets 10 including the
top recesses 50 and a colorant as thefunctional material 40. The thicknesses of the absorbent sheet for pets according to Comparative Examples 1 and 2 and Examples 1 to 4 are all the same. - Here, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 and Examples 1 to 4, the
topsheet 12 is white, the saturation of thetopsheet 12 itself is 0%, and the lightness of thetopsheet 12 itself is 100%. Therefore, in Comparative Example 2, the saturation at the position of the top recesses 50 is 0%, and the lightness at the position of the top recesses 50 is 100%. - In Examples 1 to 4, the saturation and the hue at the position of the
top recesses 50 are different from those of Comparative Example 2 due to the colorant as thefunctional material 40. Specifically, in Examples 1 to 4, the lightness at the position of the top recesses 50 is 100%. - In Examples 1 and 3, the saturation at the position of the top recesses 50 is 10%. In Examples 2 and 4, the saturation at the position of the top recesses 50 is 50%. In Examples 1 and 2, the hue at the position of the top recesses 50 is 155 degrees. Furthermore, in Examples 3 and 4, the hue at the position of the top recesses 50 is 280 degrees.
- The sensory evaluation was performed as follows. Ten people compared each of the absorbent sheet for pets according to Comparative Example 2 and Examples 1 to 4 with the absorbent sheet for pets according to Comparative Example 1. As a result, whether the respective absorbent sheet for pets according to Comparative Example 2 and Examples 1 to 4 “look thick”, “look unchanged in thickness”, or “look thin”, compared with the absorbent sheet for pets of Comparative Example 1 was evaluated. In Table 1 below, the number of people who answered “look thicker”, “look unchanged in thickness”, or “look thinner” is shown.

TABLE 1 Com- Com- Ex- Ex- parative parative ample ample Example 1 Example 2 1 2 Top recess None Present Present Present Colorant None None Present Present Saturation at the position — 0% 10% 50% of the top recess Lightness at the position — 100% 100% 100% of the top recess Hue at the position — — 155 155 of the top recess degrees degrees Sensory Look thicker — 4 10 9 evaluation Look unchanged — 5 0 1 results Look thinner — 1 0 0 - As a result of the sensory evaluation, the number of people who answered that the absorbent sheet for pets (Examples 1 to 4) including the
top recesses 50 and the colorant as thefunctional material 40 look thicker than the sheet of Comparative Example 1 has increased significantly. That is, it has been found that by providing a colorant at the position of thetop recesses 50, the user can recognize that the absorbent sheet for pets is thicker. In addition, from the results of Examples 1 to 4, when the difference between the saturation at the position of thetop recesses 50 and the saturation around the top recesses 50 when viewed from the topsheet is 10% or more, it has been found that the user can feel the thickness of the absorbent sheet for pets sufficiently. - As mentioned above, although the present invention is explained in detail using the above-mentioned embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein. The present invention can be implemented as modifications and changes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention defined by the description of the claims.
